Drill chuck INT-16-SK40 – integrated self-tightening, 57 mm capacity (Vertex)

The Drill chuck INT-16-SK40 is an integrated, self-tightening chuck designed for precision drilling and stable clamping on machines with an SK40 taper spindle.

• Integrated self-tightening design
• 57 mm clamping diameter
• SK40 taper for machine spindles
• Robust construction, 2.4 kg weight

Consistent hole quality through self-tightening clamping

The integrated, self-tightening mechanism provides secure clamping that improves concentricity and reduces runout, resulting in more consistent hole quality and longer tool life. With a 57 mm maximum clamping capacity the chuck accommodates a wide range of drill shank sizes while maintaining a compact footprint. The design reduces the need for frequent retightening during long runs and supports stable performance when machining both short and extended drilling cycles, which translates into measurable gains in production reliability.

Broad machine compatibility and sturdy build for industrial use

Fitted to an SK40 taper, the chuck matches common steep-taper spindles used across many machine types, enabling straightforward integration into existing setups. The specified mass of 2.4 kg indicates a robust construction that resists vibration under load and supports accurate, repeatable clamping. The combination of a standard taper interface and solid mechanical design helps to minimise spindle wear and simplifies replacement, making the chuck suitable for routine workshop operations and medium-duty industrial environments.

Lower maintenance, faster workflow, reliable sourcing

The unit’s integrated concept reduces the number of separate components to service, cutting inspection and maintenance time without compromising safety. Clear technical compatibility with SK40 spindles enables predictable spare-part planning and rapid machine changeovers. Sourcing through a specialist distributor ensures traceability and consistent quality control, so downtime is reduced and procurement is simplified. The result is a practical balance of productivity and confidence for workshop managers seeking dependable clamping solutions.
